After this video I rushed to watch Space Dandy, man It was a big letdown. Couldn't get over episode 3. The teenager sex humor and excessive fanservice made me feel like I was watching a product for kids. I think this is a fair warning, if you liked Cowboy Bebop, this series has NOTHING to do with it.

[@Stevem]

@@OjoRojo40 did you watch it though ? Like I made a point in the video this wasn't bebop it's a very wild loose pulp crass experimental thing. I can also give many examples of episodes which are not like that as I did in the vid . The dog in the junkyard episode written by the head writer of bebop , maasaki yuasa ep , episode 5, the plant episode , the big fish ep , the interdimentional ep etc

SPACE DANDY is one of the few shows that i can easily rewatch and still be amazed and never getting board of it. its such work that it is not going to be repeated. who knows ....

[@Stevem]

It's the one and only baby

[@jmalmsten]

Space Dandy sold me on its concept during the first seconds. I just love it when a production throws itself into the unknown while barely being able to hold on to its own rules. Even those stories of the script meetings being limited to two sessions each episode. Watanabe and the crew simply set it all up so that they couldn't think too hard on the next step. Kind of forcing the production to jazz like improvisation. And it damn well worked.

[@Stevem]

It sounds to me that these writing sessions weren't out of the norm they've joked in the past that a lot of it is talking about stupid stuff that in a roundabout way takes form into an episode.

[@bigbone_99]

Man Space Dandy was an absolute treat. It felt like an extended version of Genius Party. It turned me into a more "hardcore" fan of anime looking for more treats like it. I'm quite glad that its production spawned the staff and producers of One Punch Man and Mob Psycho 100, especially mob psycho. Its art style is so out there in its use of different mediums and how off model it always looks it just feels like dandy's spiritual successor. Great video as always!

[@Stevem]

Out of all Bones has done Mob is closest back to the wild anthology style of Dandy both of them are high tier

[@Weaboo_sensei]

A World with No Sadness, Baby was for the me single best episode of Space Dandy, everything was so good crafted, how Dandy is potrayed and the story itself was very emotional, and the end of the episode i was in tears on how beautiful everything was, also that final part before the credits roll out the girl waiting Dandy with a smile, was something else. I might do a Top 10 Space Dandy episodes, there was so many hiding gems on terms of plots, direction and production in general.

[@Stevem]

GO FOR IT They make some subtle forshadowing in the first ep which is golden "How do I get his Job" when talking about the narrator is hilarious in retrospect

[@realkingofantarctica]

I realised Space Dandy was something special at the end of episode, where Dandy gets on the surfboard and Stardust Pipeline starts playing. That one moment turned it into one of my favourite anime.

[@vicenteortegarubilar9418]

@@Stevem great!!!

[@lightingpikachu9]

Ay, you used the blog post I showed you, awesome. Space Dandy deserves more love, it’s actually what got me interested in anime as a medium in the first place. It’s a show that really doesn’t have the broad appeal of Bebop or Champloo but I hope it finds a cult following someday. It’s pretty beloved in the Sakuga community at least. Can’t wait for you to tackle Carol and Tuesday. Keep up the good work.

[@Stevem]

It was a great little piece I had like this explosive moment when he mentioned the themes , just kept thinking absurdism, I didn't even realise they mentioned absurdism later on but I think in reading it they were talking just about one scene , thanks for showing it to me it really helped it all come together in a dandy kind of way

[@jacobimerini7774]

Thanks for this man a new veiw on a show I never looked that deep in dandy went from 3rd favourite to 1st

[@Stevem]

Oh wow I'm glad my words could help !

[@808v1]

ok, I went found S1&2 and started watching them...first time was on mushrooms and I was just speechless watching Space Dandy - just so good in so many ways. Then I continued watching it sober a few days later and it was just as enjoyable in a different way - some complex ideas presented in a bizarre absurd way baby. I loved Bebop and Champloo even more...and then this?! So glad you turned me onto this in this series. Thank you!

[@808v1]

addendum: I actually think Dandy may have overtaken Champloo as my fav and go to recommendation or 'here have a burned DVD of anime' first time intro to people.

[@Kuzhy811]

Really enjoyed this 3 part dive. Thank you for creating and sharing this💖💖💖 Space Dandy is on my Need to Watch watchlist!

[@beepboop9628]

I was definitely surprised when I first started watching Space Dandy as I was not expecting a humor laden absurdist masterpiece, however, with Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo being two of my favorite and most frequently re-watched animes, I had no doubt it would be great. I did not feel the same resistance as other viewers because I wasn’t set in my expectations of the show. I love the former so much and trust Watanabe and his team so completely, I got to just sit back and enjoy the show because I knew whatever they put out would be amazing in it’s own right even if it doesn’t mirror previous works. I don’t go out of my way to watch comedy and the overall visual theme of Space Dandy isn’t my absolute favorite but it works perfectly for what it is and it’s become one of my favorites to watch. These three shows are also the only anime series I will watch Dubbed over subbed. The voice acting is just top notch.

[@rickythomas9698]

Space dandy is one of my favourites which includes cowboy bebop.

After rewatching bebop, I stumbled across this 3 part series and man, it was fantastic! I’ll definitely be watching space dandy and samurai champloo next! Thanks so much! Edit: for anyone who cares, I watched them both and adored them. They both get a 10 out of 10, but I’m especially obsessed with space dandy.

I was once talking to a guy at a shop in a train station while waiting for my train. We got talking about anime and he asked what my favourite anime was and i said "space dandy" and he replied "why?"... i honesty didn't have enough time to answer so i just left it at "just spoke to me during the time i watched it"... what im trying to say is if you watched it only once watch it again. Also your channel is amazing keep it up man

[@HyaSagitta]

I came upon your channel because I watched funny games and saw a videoessay about that film, and after that your Satoshi Kon video pop up. I'm a fan now. Also: Space Dandy second season is amazing. I'ts not as chaotic as the 1st. But man, the music. And those episodes about love oooffff...

[@schemingfox]

I love that "Who Cares Baby?!" scene so much, what a great show :D

[@Stevem]

Who cares Baby indeed. The go with the Flow mentality at it's finest. Though there's some other points worth establishing I didn't get time to say in the video. Dandy does in some way achieve all the states of dealing with the absurd outside maybe the politics one though that's debatable you could argue the episode where he tries to convince the two aliens about Peace was an act of politics.

[@Stevem]

He becomes an actor in the high school musical ep and a form of artist in the Musician ep which is amazing. He literally comes out with a late 70s banger which sounds like Tatsuro Yamashita

[@schemingfox]

@@Stevem I remember the High School one, namely him having a sing off with Queen Bee about Butts :L

[@Stevem]

While Dandy is a closed case I believe since it exists in a multi verse time loop you could just release a film with the most overt talents they could find where anything and everything happens and it would be great I'm talking 2001 but an anime about a guy who like boobies

[@Stevem]

[@Stevem]

I think Watanabe has a good working relationship with Fuji Tv most of his shows have ended up there now

[@EvgeniyNeutralMusician]

"Cowboy Bebop" is absolutely absurdistic, nihilistic, existential show. It's transcendental masterpiece about life and death. It's sodden with bushido philosophy as well, death is everywhere. Too bad many don't understand it. "Space Dandy" is like that as well, but representation is completely different. Not to say that ironically overwhelming majority don't even understand Spike character at all, while praising him. Saying that he is "laid-back" is totally wrong. For 22 years I grow very tired of explaining things about "Cowboy Bebop" and other Watanabe works. Wrote without exaggeration more that "War and Peace" about it. But I don't blame people. Not everyone supposed to be thinker, philosopher, have high intelligence, and similar world view and mind as Watanabe, or know much, and read tons of philosophy and cognitivistics and other books to understand it. No one can understand fully, no one can understand each other fully, since seperate consciousness, subject-object attitude. But still, good job with these "The Man Behind Cowboy Bebop" series. Keep up the improving, even while everything is meaningless in the end. Absurdism wins.

[@s4mur41RPG]

[@LibertyDino]

Oh man, you are going on this from a marketing perspective purely but writing stories, having something you want to say, that is not about that. The later episodes work since the riddles have been a set up to draw others in. It is a psychological effort to make sure other ppl understand you.

[@jayfolk]

PM Abe = "ah-bae" not "ābe"

[@Stevem]

You are probs right there but y'know Abe still thinks comfort women were independent business women so I can't say I respect him enough to pronounce it right

[@EvgeniyNeutralMusician]

Sorry, but to say that "Terror in Resonance" is one of Yoko Kanno finest works and OSTs one should be really ignorant of her works. It's one of her weak ones, or at least mediocre ones to say at least, even if it's a different. But she always was eclectic.

[@Stevem]

Taste is subjective mate, if you can tell from this series I heard a lot of her work and beyond Watanabe's shows I've heard most of her soundtracks, I like the style I'm a big fan of Icelandic bands what can I say.

[@EvgeniyNeutralMusician]

​@@Stevem Not so subjective as most people think with their cognitive biases. There are pretty solid criterions in art and music in particular. Human nature is the same for all humans. Life and death conditions are objective. Beauty and feeling of it is similar, if you get what I mean. 99.9% will find beauty in the same things. It's gone long time with evolution, thousands and millions of years. It's even genetical. I will not go into music theory at the moment, I don't think I'm a good musician and theorist in this field, but I'm a great listener and I understand a lot in different art (literature and music especially, then cinema and painting) and criterions, being a polymath, more than 2 decades of learning and researching cognitive science and fine art didn't go wrong and useless for me. But let me know if you want to talk about it more detailed, then I think we can find some time and do this. "I like the style I'm a big fan of Icelandic bands what can I say." - that's the biggest reason why you value this OST so high. And it's ok. But again, favourite and the best is not the same thing, you see. There is big difference in terms and semantics. For example, I can like some mediocre art, or good one, but not the very best thing, not some masterpiece, and I can have it in my favourites, but I will not say that it is best. You see? That's a big difference. I wish you and more people would distinguish "meat and cutlet". But usually people claim their favoutire works to be the best. It can be true, don't get me wrong, but not necessary, and usually it's not so. You can go on any video on YT and you will see in the comments that probably someone there is claiming that "this is the best thing ever", which in overwhelming majority of times will be not true. Cognitive biases and logical mistakes of humans and their brains are huge. And they are everywhere. Even for the most rational ones, sadly. C'est la vie. Sad, but true. Sapienti sat.

[@Stevem]

I fundamentally disagree with the idea of objectively great art, as in the best of all time shit. Subjectivity is implied, I don't care to get into a circle jerk about the difference between subjectivity and cognitive bias

[@EvgeniyNeutralMusician]

​@@Stevem Okay, that's your opinion. Opinions are truly subjective. So it can be wrong and probably is wrong. The problem is when people find subjectivity in objective phenomenons. Adjacent problem is fanaticism. Nevermind tho, if you don't want to research, to doubt and try to find truth, I will not impose more information and explanations. Surface level is not interesting for me anymore. Enlightenment. Best wishes.

Nice that you brought up absurdism and Camu, one of my favourite absurdism writers, but the important part that he was totally wrong that we must imagine Sisyphus happy. Albert critisizes there thinkers from Aristotle to Shestov, but then he falls into his own trap of illusions and self deception. I was just giving lectures in the university about absurdism and his "Myth" weeks ago, so I know what I'm talking about. His conclusions are very wrong logically, inconsistent, but the value of that essay in the critique and collection of ideas and thoughts of thinkers from Dostoevskiy to Kierkegaard. However there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so. Cognitive thinking determine your morals.

[@grilla4464]

Great video, I'll have to check out Terror Resonance it looks pretty interesting. Space Dandy is such an amazing show, I love everything about it. It's art style(s), music, animation, color schemes character design; everything it has to offer. The show got me into anime and music in other languages. It feels weird that before 2014 I couldn't begin to think about listening to foreign music and now I can't imagine music without that. I really hope those rumours about a season 3 for Space Dandy were true.

The teenager sex humor and excessive fanservice made me feel like I was watching a product for kids. I think this is a fair warning, if you liked Cowboy Bebop, this series has NOTHING to do with it.
